Radiohead Album Vinyl Reissues

Radiohead and Coldplay will have their previous albums reissued on vinyl next month, as part of a new series in conjunction with Capitol and EMI, billed as "From The Capitol Vaults".

Four of Radiohead's albums - "OK Computer", "Kid A", "Amnesiac", "Hail To The Thief" - will be available in August 19th, with "Pablo Honey" and "The Bends" to follow shortly after.

As for Coldplay, both "Parachutes" and "A Rush Of Blood To The Head" will be given the vinyl treatment.

The reissues include remastered music pressed on high quality vinyl and housed inside artwork that replicates the original issues.

ooo so that means i might be able to actually find these albums in shops now

Capitol and EMI trying to sponge even more money out of their bands. Not cool.

[VoodooChild15]

I hope they aren't as expensive as the $40 copies of The Bends and OK Computer at my record store. If they're affordable, I'll buy. I love vinyl and I love Radiohead.

[musiclover2399]

Dude, vinyl kicks ass. I'd get AROBTTH on viny definitely. I'm pretty sure Viva La Vida is already on vinyl though.

[The_Paranoia]

I hate what EMI is doing, but I want a Radiohead vinyl.

Same here.

[Seryaph]

Mmm Radiohead . . . mmmmm Vinyl . . . MMMMM pirate vinyl . . .. .

[Basquiat]

I don't listen to much Radiohead, but if anyone was wondering how much these cost, Circuit City has a good vinyl selection and has those albums listed. Just search for "Artist" and then "LP".

Just a tip for those wondering where to buy cheap vinyl.

Will In rainbows be in vinyl?

[The_String_Man]

Well most records are pretty reasonable, I got my In Rainbows for thirteen bucks. It's just that these seem to be special editions or imports or something.

[TollBoothWorker]

Why did they even mention Coldplay?

[thewho65]

But there are already Radiohead vinvls available on Amazon for less that 20$...

They released the vinyl version as part of the Disc Box last year. I don't know if they're still selling it.

Checked.

It is. Hot Topic always has a bunch...maybe hit them up

[SMITH05]

This would be awesome to have all of Radioheads stuff on vinyl, but idk if I'll buy it.Just for the same reason that I didn't buy the greatest hits album (altho I really wanted to give into temptation).Record companies trying to squeeze every penny out of them, and they didn't even aprove of the greatest hits release. I'd like to hear what Radiohead thinks about the reissues first

[orion284]

i want them, especially Ok Computer and Hail to The Theif

[LifesSweetDrug]

I think this should be the future. I am not a big fan or re-realising there catalogues but if a bands releases it on vinyl. Then yea I will buy. As CD's are dyeing out I think bands should release more Vinyls.

[Broken_Drum]

Noooice.

[lateraluspiral]

I want OK Computer and KID A
oh so very badly.

[TheIceCreamMan]

The Bends was $40 at my record shop too. Beatles reissues were $35 a piece. (Except Abbey Road which was oddly $18.) Do these companies really think that's a fair price? Dead Kennedys reissues were $10 each. Ramones are no more than $14. Hopefully these will be fairly priced.

[damienricecakes]

i will boycott this
just like i did with the radiohead boxset
and the radiohead greatest hits cd and dvd
not f***kin cool i used to like emi
and i dnt get why people are saying vinyls are rare, if you go to zavvi or hmv in a big city like manchester they are quite common, as well as at the independent stores :S

[Four Symbols]

Awesome news.... I have an original OK Computer on Vinyl--I can never open it, so I'll have to get an extra copy for playing.

[Indie_Slap]

its cool that Ok Computer is getting re-released on vinyl
i really wanna get it

whats not cool is that its from EMI

i got the in rainbows boxset too

[IamGod 666]

Radio is cool. Coldplay, notsomuch

[Crazy]

i was going to do this if i ever had a band

[tona_107]

just steal it from the record store, what's the worst that can happen?

[ElThomas]

this is bullshit. radiohead always wanted their albums in vinyl because everything else ruins the music. now that theyve left the label capitol is giving them what they want...but they dont get the profit. ****ing capitalist pigs

[timster36]

i got in rainbows on vinyl for only $15

kid a cost me $50 since it was an import
ok computer only cost me $20

i really want hail to the thief and bends

I thought Radiohead wasn't about the money?

[redXIII4life]

Radio head and cold play arent even that good
AT ALL

[shattamakar]

kiss my ass redneck...radiohead are the best alternative band ever...well maybe after incubus (im not mentioning rhcp cuz theyre more of funk than alternative)

[Havenspear]

Man, I could DIG Kid A on vinyl...

[trent_slatter]

I had no idea they were out of print. Rockinghorse records here in Australia has every Radiohead album on vinyl.

I ony bought Ok Computer and The Bends a few weeks ago.

Definitely read Angry Rape as well...must need a fap badly, or something.

[Dingoman]

this may be another pathetic attempt for emi to make some dough off of the greatest band in the universe...but i really want some of there stuff on vinyl...

[inbloom93]

This just made my day.
I already have In Rainbows on vinyl, and its about 1000x better than the cd.
Vinyl completely kicks cds ass.
